Construction Site Accidents

Construction Site Accidents

You’re doing your job to the best of your ability, and due to no fault of your own, you are involved in a serious accident… on the job! The Federal Bureau of Labor Statistics reports construction laborers suffered the highest number of fatalities in 2004. Construction site accidents often occur as a result of faulty materials, inferior tools and equipment, malfunctioning machinery and negligence. Employees are often working in and with hazardous environments such as trenches, heights and power lines, and dangerous equipment. Construction site accidents causing injury or death can be devastating to a family. Whether it is a fall from scaffolding or a building, equipment malfunction or something falling from a site, construction accidents are taken very seriously. More often than not, shortcuts may have been taken, safety standards not followed or regulations overlooked. Determining if there was fault and who was at fault can be complicated matters. If you have been involved in a construction site injury, please contact your doctor and an accident attorney as soon as possible to help determine the extent of your injuries and to determine who is liable for the injury. There are also statute of limitations laws that govern how long you have to file a claim, so do not delay in registering your complaint. Because nearly all construction site accidents are preventable, a construction site accident lawsuit is important, particularly when a construction injury leaves a worker disabled or results in construction death. Therefore, you will need a qualified and knowledgeable lawyer who will be on your side and will work to get the satisfaction you so desire.
